    Remapping: safe limit for transmissions

    Does anyone happen to know what is the safe limit for torque for the autobox in a C207 (E350CDI)? I am considering a remap and I am told 750Nm is possible, which I do not doubt, but I want to satisfy myself it is well within the transmission's capability. The standard output is 620Nm...

    Remapped cars and insurance

    My current car (BMW 335i coupe) has had modifications done to it, including increases - via engine management - of 64bhp/112Nm torque and limited slip diff fitted.

    Using a car broker - anyone done this?

    Just got an online quote for a new E350 CDI (C207) from Drivethedeal.com which came out as lower than some used prices, for the same model, from MB dealers. Anyone got experience of using a car broker? Any snags/catches? Thanks. :)

    Looking to replace BMW with Merc

    Hi all. I currently own a 335i coupe BMW - significantly modified - but am considering replacing it with an E-Class Coupe - probably an E350. One of the principal reasons for thinking about jumping ship from BMW (who I have been with for 11 years and 2 cars) is the state of UK roads, i.e...
